December views

It has been very, very cold in this neck of the woods...so we have been passing the time doing quite a bit of this...



And this....



And I've been whittlin' up these like nobody's business...I'm not sure why it took me so long to discover how fun these are to make...and nothing is cozier than a handknit sock...well, other than having a big, squishy golden retriever to keep you warm. :-)



And I might as well throw in a couple more pics, since I skipped so many days...





I hope where ever you are you're keeping toasty warm...and for more December views or to join, feel free to click here.

(Come sit with me...and toast your tootsies.)
(One of my original designs...I made this 'Disco Snow Diva' top for my daughter.You know...just a little shameless plug.:-)



(We love to trim our holiday tree with natural and handmade ornaments. This garland was a family project from last year...crafted while watching a movie and munching on popcorn.)
